Loch Veyatie
Loch Veyatie is a large body of water in north-west Scotland. It stretches for 6 km north-westwards from the settlement of Elphin, and lies between Suilven and Cùl Mòr. It reaches depths of around 30 m.The boundary between Ross-shire and Sutherland runs the length of the loch.Angling
Well known for its trout and charr, it is a popular destination for anglers. Run-off from a salmon hatchery at the eastern end of the loch attracts large fish, including, unusually, charr, into its main feeder river, the Abhainn Mhòr. The reservoir Cam Loch is directly located 1 km to the northeast, and follows the same orientation.Geography
Loch Veyatie is drained at its western end by Uidh Fheàrna, a channel of slow-moving water leading into Fionn Loch, which is itself drained by the River Kirkaig leading to the notable 20m Falls of Kirkaig before entering Loch Kirkaig.Frigate
The Loch-class frigate was named after the loch.Gallery
